UltraX Batteries.

Steve Carr · Mar 28, 2019

What happened to all the UltraX and Powerextra batteries for the Typhoon H? They disappeared from eBay and Amazon. They don't come up on a Google search. Only the Gifi show up.
Only place I could find them was at Carolina Drones.

(EDIT) The battery is back in stock since this thread was posted.

Much more expensive. The Ultrax have been selling for $65-70.

Right, they were more expensive here, strange old world.

Mrgs.. You always get what you pay for... even with H batteries....

Hi Steve Carr,
I purchased 4 of them from Haydn Gerkin here in Australia and they are great so far. He may let you know where to get them. Johnno Hennessy.

Not sure really, £100 for Ultrax, €85 for Original, next day for Original, up-to 6 weeks for the third party, on eBay and a few dodgy stores in China, or Europe.

Here's a site I found a while back.
They seem to have different warehouses around the world.
Different ones seem to hold different stock.
I guess it depends on the demand in those locations.

I noticed the same thing yesterday. They likely discontinued them.

I actually ordered a 2 pack of the Ultrax on eBay a couple of weeks ago and right before they arrived the actual auction listing changed to show a 2 pack of a totally different LiPo battery. I got worried but mine arrived just fine and they both have January 2019 manufacture dates.
That being said, I noticed they are no longer on eBay or Amazon when I looked after the listing I bought them on changed. Very strange.....

I bought the last two I could find on Amazon last week

RatBob · May 21, 2019

FYI, the first one I bought, cycled it once on the charger, charged it again and took it for a test flight, hovering, bit of flying, up and down, 15 minutes plus to first battery warning full throttle ascent, battery warning went away as soon as I let up throttle, landed normally. Took it home, put it on the charger, 3.78 VDC across the board, ordered a second.

The last two Yuneec batteries, one from a Fleabay seller, the other from Yuneec direct were 3 years old, and yield about 14 minutes after 5 cycles. Looks well built, sucks if they quit making them.

Good News Amazon has them available starting June 28th......I'm pre-ordering 2 now free shipping with prime

I bought the first one last year and it's still doing fine.

As long as those remain available H owners will have a power supply. It would be nice if Yuneec would announce their intent with continued battery supply.
